I love how grace covers her face everytime she wants something to focus 😂 during the taste testing...and damn now i really need some snacks after watching that!
i was eating a ~very soft~ breakfast while you guys were CRUNCHING on your noodle snacks and my poor little brain was so confused. my food crunchy? why doesn't it feel crunch? wottie? had to pause my monching until after you'd finished CRONCHING cause my mouth was like W O A H burst out laughing when james was so casually like, "I'm a vlogger :-)" i totally relate to your last segment about being an "artist" but not feeling connected to that title all the time because you're not always making art... i have no advice but i have a big, juicy virtual hug? so you can have that? :P fanks for another great video, leigh! love ya stuff!
This video boosted my serotonin levels! Laughed so much. Can’t wait to go to H Mart to grab some yummy Korean snacks. You guys are awesome! Thanks for the recs.
FYI, M&M's and Smarties are basically the same thing in Canada. What Americans know as Smarties, we call Rockets over here. Yay confusing product Branding!!?
Grace and James are indeed great! Loved this vlog and I really like the snacks tasting. Hope I’ll find some of those here in Paris. Thanks for the video 💕
Such a lovely upbeat vlog Leigh 🥰🥰🥰 Can really relate to not having much time to make art when you're job title is being a fulltime artist - really hope you can find a schedule that works for you and fit more time in to create! Sending love from Oxford!xoxo
Thank you for sharing 💚 your videos are always full of joy and fun, loved the jokes 😂 🌟 I live in Macau when I was young, and it was a paradise for asian snacks, I loved those rice crackers and the koala cookies
the smartie/m&m joke must be Canadian! Smarties here are like m&m's - they are a candy coated chocolate disk, they are a smidge larger than an m&m and different colours, they are red, orange, green, purple, blue, yellow and pink and they come in a box not a bag! i know in the USA smarties are some sort of chalky candy like a conversation heart!
I missed your premiere this time, but I was still happy to watch it later. Cool and fun as usual! Thank you for your time spent editing this amazing video!😊
In Italy being sad there’s no close Asian market near me to satisfy my childhood cravings 🥺🥺🥺🥺. Still loved the vid though💖Grace came thru with the snackzzz
I so so so feel ya on the "I'm an *artist* yet, most of my time is not spent doing ART". I give you a LOT of credit for running and constantly creating for youtube and your patreon. That's a lot of work, even if most of it is a labor of love. But I love that you addressed this idea of giving yourself more time to just make the damn art. I'm right there witchya ;)
Love when you and Grace taste test snacks!😁 Tbh Leigh, I hope when you do make more art, you tape paper on the wall again and just make whatever. I loved watching you paint on your wall haha. Hope you have a lovely trip, you need a break, you've more than earned one😊 Little Puppy Patron Tina G., signing off✌🏼🐶💙
I ate ddukbokki almost every day I was in Korea. The one on a stick though not in a bowl. Lol. So I’m sure that spicy rice cake was delish. REAL DROOL!!
Wasn’t that just so fun!!! I loved hanging out with you all and Leigh girl, you are amazing. Can’t wait for you to have a nice break, totally deserved my friend.
I guess i need to send you some of my Korean snacks. I am really enjoying you two have fun working together. I was so tempted to have that one last night. I love 뿌셔뿌셔. spicy one especially. Anyways, I better go and have one for my snack. You are the best! Have an awesome day. ^^ Oh, I also missed the sales so I am waiting for the next sketch book postcards set to come.
I just got my braces 2 days ago and I'm sat here admiring all the cRuNcH that's going on in this video whilst eating VERY lightly toasted bread cut up in squares, like a baby. I miss crunchy things T_T Pray for me to finally get hold of these snacks and report back in 3 years time.
Let James know that Smarties in Canada are different and basically m&m’s so that’s why the joke works. I highly recommend Canadian smarties. Plus American smarties are called rockets or something here.
I'm dumb and forgot to hit the bell for this. Also, my work internet went down, so I have an excuse for being late to this premier. Also, I should probably be working and not watching this right now, but HERE I AM. Hi. Procrastination at it's finest. Thanks Leigh!
Just susscribed with my second account too! I feel u Leigh, I'm having a bit of contradictory moment about art stuff, Uni sucks in all my creative energy and I end up not making anything for "myself" even when Uni is a just-for-myself thing...Trying to make it work. Hope your week off reloads those art making vibes. We looove u
also...i had/have always wanted to be in your situation - where i'm so exhausted from so many orders i need to take a break...but not? that whole 'success' thing makes me nervous because i see many of you youtubers really burning out and/or dealing with mental health stuff on top of it all. i think the demand to produce all the things (vlogs, product, IG content etc) is a recipe for burnout...AND when Patreon is added (and super important to stay afloat financially)...a whole other literal tier of orders and extras...craziness
Agreed. I was also scared of this and am trying to tackle it now. Being a small small biz definitely has its perks. I remember having the time to hand write longer notes and individually wrap things :’)
whoa a twilight zone looking at the vlog in the vlog omg am i real ? hahahaha great blog i will be there for Aug shop update cus i totally slept this one lol forgive me im old. My partner tries to do my work and hes like. yep im professional now yep yep, okay what am i doing? lol Grace and James are the real ones hahaha
I feel like the job title of "artist" is really romanticized. like you'd think we just paint 24/7 when in reality it's more about running a business and doing behind the scenes work.
Jake Parker just posted a video about 3 books that are good for artists who need to reframe their mindset about “work” and forming good habits for their creativity. I want to listen to them on audible to try to create some better systems for myself, maybe you’d get inspired too! 😃
I’ve had the tea time honey cookie before. I’ve never eaten anything with such and odd texture and taste. Nevertheless, my aunt and I ate the whole bag’s worth…
Saludos from California. Me gusta! I loved this video, I hope you find something that works out for you and have more time to create more beautiful work.
(Ignore this if you don't want advice from a stranger hehe) Sounds like you need some more hands in the studio!! Maybe more hands means, more regular shopupdates means more income, means more painting time - means more products?
The Arthur hand 💀 also love how Grace laughed at the Eileen joke☺️
I love how grace covers her face everytime she wants something to focus 😂 during the taste testing...and damn now i really need some snacks after watching that!
I told Grace that my camera has face recognition so she does that to encourage my camera to change its focus. Not only is it cute it’s also helpful!
@@LeighEllexson yes super cute!
Lol I love how James kept trying to guess your password and then he finally got it after a decade!xD
He tried SO many times hahah
def need more of that james contentttttt, co-host level: jedi.
Mhm he is a great co host!
i was eating a ~very soft~ breakfast while you guys were CRUNCHING on your noodle snacks and my poor little brain was so confused. my food crunchy? why doesn't it feel crunch? wottie? had to pause my monching until after you'd finished CRONCHING cause my mouth was like W O A H
burst out laughing when james was so casually like, "I'm a vlogger :-)"
i totally relate to your last segment about being an "artist" but not feeling connected to that title all the time because you're not always making art... i have no advice but i have a big, juicy virtual hug? so you can have that? :P
fanks for another great video, leigh! love ya stuff!
Not even half way through the vid and already loving it. Such chill vibes 🐦🐝
the sweatpants baby sling is *chef's kiss*
This video boosted my serotonin levels! Laughed so much. Can’t wait to go to H Mart to grab some yummy Korean snacks. You guys are awesome! Thanks for the recs.
I recommend chocopies 🤤
Watching this again immediately after watching the premiere ! Thanks for being so awesome Leigh ❤️
FYI, M&M's and Smarties are basically the same thing in Canada. What Americans know as Smarties, we call Rockets over here. Yay confusing product Branding!!?
They are also very similar in the UK.
And in Australia!
me: preparing to comment this
Also came to the comments to find this comment hahahaha! Smarties are basically just not as good M&Ms in Australia.
@@EmmaFoxArt they are, however, excellent for using as lipstick to impress the other 6 year olds
Grace and James are indeed great!
Loved this vlog and I really like the snacks tasting. Hope I’ll find some of those here in Paris.
Thanks for the video 💕
James' jokes were my fav
10/10 can relate to the story of eating the honey cookies and being surrounded by the wrappers 😂 I LOVE those!
the intro/outro dress is amazing and beautiful and I really
Will def try these snacks 🌷😭 also grace is such a ball of sunshine! Her smile is so bright and contagious 💖 loved this vid
love the dress and i always stick around for the goodbye dance
Love your vlogs, the snack taste tests always put a big smile on my face
2 weeks feels like forever ago but it’s really not. I just like your Vlogs! I keep checking your account for a new video! 😂 You are so loved! ❤️
Such a lovely upbeat vlog Leigh 🥰🥰🥰 Can really relate to not having much time to make art when you're job title is being a fulltime artist - really hope you can find a schedule that works for you and fit more time in to create! Sending love from Oxford!xoxo
Hey! With the M&M and Smartie joke, in Australia we have Smarties like M&M’s, they’re by Nessle (10/10 reccomend, they’re better than M&M’s imo :) x)!
I'ma allLL about the korean snack segment
Thank you for sharing 💚 your videos are always full of joy and fun, loved the jokes 😂 🌟

Canadian or British :) as our smarties are also like bigger, flatter m&m's :)
I'm living for these vlogs 😻💜
I missed your premiere this time, but I was still happy to watch it later. Cool and fun as usual! Thank you for your time spent editing this amazing video!😊
I love your vlogs so much, I love your energy and your art
In Italy being sad there’s no close Asian market near me to satisfy my childhood cravings 🥺🥺🥺🥺. Still loved the vid though💖Grace came thru with the snackzzz

I really dig James's kind of gremlin-y vibe. I want to be more like James.
You should take the door off to your closet/storage! Also love the swaddling of zuko lmao 🤣
Love when you and Grace taste test snacks!😁 Tbh Leigh, I hope when you do make more art, you tape paper on the wall again and just make whatever. I loved watching you paint on your wall haha. Hope you have a lovely trip, you need a break, you've more than earned one😊

Lovely vlog & lovely co-hosts!
hahah the cleaning of the studio. I spend so much time cleaning!!!
I ate ddukbokki almost every day I was in Korea. The one on a stick though not in a bowl. Lol. So I’m sure that spicy rice cake was delish. REAL DROOL!!
I absolutely love your videos
I have some Sony noise canceling headphone I’m not sure the model 💕
@@LeighEllexson thank you so much!!!
you could get a mirrored object and put it behind the spider plant. get a bit of direct indirect refracted light on that mama
I love that you use a gratitude journal. I've always wanted to do that but I'm terrible at consistency :(
I definitely don’t use it everyday! I start all my journaling with 10 Things I’m grateful for. I do it when I’m sad too haha
teach me how to be good at routine lolol loved this vid, leigh! v fun :~)
I can't stop saying 'crisp' now! haha
i screamed when i said it out loud lol
Wasn’t that just so fun!!! I loved hanging out with you all and Leigh girl, you are amazing. Can’t wait for you to have a nice break, totally deserved my friend.
I nominate Leigh for an Emmy for excellent video editing skills in the short series comedy category 🏆
wow I am honored
Pretty darn awesome video Leigh👍
I guess i need to send you some of my Korean snacks. I am really enjoying you two have fun working together. I was so tempted to have that one last night. I love 뿌셔뿌셔. spicy one especially.

Hell yeah CAM!! There’s also Daiyou up in Mason now, too.
I haven’t heard of that one Grace and I will have to go!
@@LeighEllexson It's a little smaller than CAM but has a slightly different selection!
Thank you for sharing a couple other places local to get Asian items, I only knew of jungle Jim's but love to find new places
I just got my braces 2 days ago and I'm sat here admiring all the cRuNcH that's going on in this video whilst eating VERY lightly toasted bread cut up in squares, like a baby. I miss crunchy things T_T
Pray for me to finally get hold of these snacks and report back in 3 years time.
It’s almost time for you to crunch something again!
The Jokes though!!! Cracked me up! 💚🙌💜
Grace is a treasure
🥺🥺🥰

Cute hahaha

I also imagine that the beginning of every vlog is your audition reel for Turner Classic Movies.
I'm dumb and forgot to hit the bell for this. Also, my work internet went down, so I have an excuse for being late to this premier. Also, I should probably be working and not watching this right now, but HERE I AM. Hi. Procrastination at it's finest. Thanks Leigh!

You should draw some of those cute Korean snacks.

Very super important question! Who dyes your fabulous hair or do you do it yourself? Please and thank
I get it bleached at salons, no one consistently. I will usually do any fun colors myself!
Zuko in that little pouch is the cutest thing in the world!!!!!! Does anyone know what breed of dog he is?
i think hes a pomeranian :)

@@LeighEllexson i think you're going to have to hire another helper :-)
i literally do absolutely nothing but drink water and watch this vlog lmao ignoring all art, work, responsibilities etc
What sketchbook do you use?!?!
I love watching your vlogs
I use a strathmore mixed media sketchbook the most
Love the tan (or is it white?) skirt that you wore!! Can i ask where you got it from??
I got it on depop the brand is Liz Claiborne 💕

Toadies like, “ Mom it’s too hot, you can’t leave the door closed, don’t worry I got you” 😂
for the rest of my life the phrase "barnacles are cuuuuuutte" will be referenced now when the situation calls for it. thank you.
It would be really cool if you could maybe link where we can buy those snacks for ourselves??
Woooo am ready with ma hydration!!!! 🥰 💧
Idk why but I lost it at the "it's a cereal..." and the raccoon clip like lmao he *aggressively* submerges himself in the milk

My partner tries to do my work and hes like. yep im professional now yep yep, okay what am i doing? lol Grace and James are the real ones hahaha
Do you guys have Ferrero Pocket Coffee in the USA? The same brand of Nutella.
I’m not sure 🤔
12:10 I slipped and fell on my funny bone and started laughing at this so hard Idk why.
Patreon Puppies Here! 💫🐶💕

I think the white is the inside of the bean?
me: crisp
crrrrisspppp
ccccrrrrriiisssspppppp
The "nuttiness" in this video! 🤣
Petition to have James start his own channel?
I feel like the job title of "artist" is really romanticized. like you'd think we just paint 24/7 when in reality it's more about running a business and doing behind the scenes work.

Madewell!
Saludos from California. Me gusta! I loved this video, I hope you find something that works out for you and have more time to create more beautiful work.
Hi Leigh! Please give your plants a little food. WATER IS GREAT but we get a little food with that...
Were do you buy the music for your videos ? 🤩
I have any account with epidemic sound :-)
seaweed is a plant, so it's vegetarian/vegan 👍
💗💗💗
(Ignore this if you don't want advice from a stranger hehe) Sounds like you need some more hands in the studio!! Maybe more hands means, more regular shopupdates means more income, means more painting time - means more products?
